If Edwards loses .... remembering what might have been

[sjdnb]

I worked the Gore campaign and realize now many people didn't, truly, realize what a great President he would have been. In hindsight, many feel this country missed an opportunity that has cost the country and the world dearly.

That's how I feel about Edwards - Yeah, his chances are slim ... he has very little money (compared to the others), and very few 'big players' endorsing him, nor does he generate the type of sensational stories/conflicts for the media to collectively drool over - and regurgitate ad nauseum (perhaps, neither candidates fault, but, regardless, the result is both Clinton and Obama are getting far more media attention than Edwards, who is virtually ignored).

But, I think people may, in the future, feel the same melancholy they do today about Gore, if they don't give him fair consideration. And, the M$M, Tweety, and his peers will continue spinning away about how they treated all the candidates equally.

1. We all feel the same about Gore

How different the world would be today, had Gore been allowed his rightful place in the White House.

But I think Hillary, Obama, or Edwards would all be good presidents.

2. I was thinking something like this today ...he is the man!

3. I am an Edwards supporter. But I am beginning to lean towards

hoping that if Edwards can't pull it out, Hillary gets the nod. I continue to be disappointed in
Obama. I just don't think he's ready.

I just don't think he knows who he is, yet, which is why he keeps talking about wanting to bring everybody together. I think that's so he can figure out where he stands.

4. My sentiments exactly. If we don't get Edwards, we WILL be sorry later that we didn't (n/t)
